Phone Puck and Trim Refinishing

I am looking into buying a 03 or 04 sl55 within the next month or so and i have a few questions for anyone with the answers

1. Is there a bluetooth upgrade available for the stock command system that allows talking and such through the sound system via a bluetooth phone? i have heard something about a puck replacement that does the trick . . .

2. I have found a few really nice 55's that are black on black but with a light wood trim and i want to refinish it in silver. How difficult is it to remove the wood trim in these cars if i were to refinish it?

I have refinished trim in a few other cars before, a bimmer and an older e class, i am not worried about that part i am just curious as to how hard they are to remove on this particular vehicle

I remember on the bimmer's center flip gate was a pain to remove which is why i am asking
